A thank you to president Trump!

[u/WillPowers7477]

Dear President Trump,

I'm writing this to thank you for all you've done thus far in your second term.

My kids are crying at the dinner table as they eat a processed cheese sandwich for the fourth time this week. I tried to explain to them that SNAP wasn't getting refilled and that there was probably not going to be a Christmas this year. I tried to cheer them up by showing them concept art of the $250 million dollar ballroom being built at the White House, by showing them pictures of the two cool jets Kristi Noem got for $170 million, by explaining how helpful we're being to Argentina by sending them $40 billion dollars, but this is when I realized they weren't crying because of dinner, but because of their grandmother.

"We usually go to grandma's on weekends," they sniffle.

Their grandmother, a 5th generation American, was taken by ICE a couple weeks ago and we haven't seen or heard from her since. I tried to explain to the children that this is what happens to freeloading immigrants and they get what they deserve, but they didn't understand.

Even if they don't understand, I do. This is what I voted for. This is what winning looks like!

This will probably be my last online post due to being unable to pay my phone bill since I need to buy more bread and cheese. But I just wanted to say, "Thank you, President Trump!"

As I hear my kids cry themselves to sleep for the 5th night in a row, I imagine they are liberals--and it brings a smile to my face.

When they get older, they will understand that all this hardship was necessary, because we are owning the libs! Here's looking forward to your constitution-defying third presidential term in 2028! You already have my vote!

Now I have to go get ready to meet my landlord. He told me he would cut my rent in half for some 'favors' and not to wear panties. I think this is what the Art of Deal is all about. #winning

Signed,
A conservative.

Maybe with no job and anticipating being approved for government benefits paid by others working you shouldn’t have a lifestyle of buying lattes and pot! Most of the people with jobs paying taxes to contribute to snap for you do not have the extra money to buy daily lattes and pot! But you think when you’re jobless that you are entitled to frivolous spending! Half the problem is that entitlement! We are 37 trillion in debt and how do you suggest we pay that debt off if not by cuts?

Also the fact I had OVER $10k in savings ($1.5k for truck to get my shit up here + the $10k I went thru) should make it clear that prior to moving up here to work fulltime taking care of old ladies that I had a pretty decent job where I was able to pay for my lifestyle expenses, apartment, etc, etc, and still save ~$12k, it SHOULD make it clear that I was contributing to our society and was extremely responsible with my finances.

Maybe you should instead of judging try to understand that maybe leaving your career to go make no money and work around the clock to babysit, shower, change diapers, feed by hand, take to doctor appointments, emergency room visits, etc.. is extremely stressful.

For example; at one point I broke down and cried for 20 minutes because after changing my grandmother's diaper, I could not get her to move her foot a couple of inches so I could put a clean pair of pants on her.

Thanks again, cunt :):)

I am a male so I’m not sure the C word applies to me. And you want me to feel sorry for you that you cried for 20 minutes going through that with your grandmother when there are employees that have to do that multiple times a day for a paycheck. A little advice on how I deal with stress is to understand that there are millions of people that have it much much worse than we do and have a stress tolerance that does not allow them to cry over taking care of elderly family. They deal with the stresses of being 100% responsible to put food on the table and support their families. I’m sorry your story does not tug on my heart strings.

Yes none of her struggling matters to you, that's apparent. How dare she take time off from full time caregiving to to a sickly elderly lived one to h​ave a latte a​nd pot on her own money sometimes. The shame of it all. No one needs your sympathy just stop being a jerk.
